Cartoons and Toys

Thinking about how much I loved Scooby Doo inspired me to do a post about my favorite Scooby Villains … or monsters or whatever As I tried to remember my favorites and did some research (I forgot some of the real people names) I decided … hey, let me record a quick podcast, because why…

Thinking about Tom and Jerry, and I figured I’d post 10 of my favorite shorts … it’s amazing how old they are (They came out in the 40s!!!!) still funny 40 years later in the 80s and even now! I didn’t type much about them since I’m giving you the videos, AND I recorded a…

After a 1 year Hiatus, it’s back …FartCon! FartCon 2013 was a blast and i couldnt WAIT to set my schedule for this year’s events! I’ve been saving my money for a yar to get some collectibles; without further ado here are the events and booths Im looking forward to checking out … Wednesday, July…

I love cartoons, and I’m annoyed very easily; ever since I was little I knew this and it was very evident when I was watching my cartoons. Now, there were a lot of main characters who were annoying (George Jetson, Inspector Gadget, He-Man, etc.) who were annoying, but I’m choosing to focus on the characters…

With the resurgence of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, I thought; “Why not the knockoffs?” back in the day when TMNT really caught on we were flooded with animals with human qualities who fought crime … Tigersharks, BattleToads, Extreme Dinosaurs, even CyBoars LOL This post I will focus on two of the most popular and unknown…

I Love GI Joe, and one of the greatest thing about the figures were the File Cards … this was unheard of for toys ever period, Action figures with bios … social security numbers, code names, real names, backgrounds! you’d cut them out and have a mini Rolodex of all of your figures … it…

Superheroes and Villains have a ton of toys, gadgets, vehicles, and schemes … unlimited travel and ammo and a whole bunch of things. Heroes are cool but since I’m pro Bad guy, I figured I’d ask: Who is the Richest Villain? It’s probably an easy answer … with immortal beings and what not but it’s…

During battles cobra and Joes had conversations from vehicle to vehicle they talked that loud? Seems like all of GI Joe responds to any cobra anything … Just coordinate a double mission on opposite ends of the planet Why are Joes and Cobras always in uniform? Playing basketball, dancing, on vacation … How did cobra…

Pop Culture battle Red vs. Blue, who would win? In an epic battle of characters in popular culture (who wear either majority red or majority blue) who would come out on top in a winner takes all battle royal? A battle to the primary color death! Red has some strong contenders: Darth Maul, M. Bison,…

What were our Cereal mascots telling us? What was going on back in the day? What were they on? Looking back, I’ve seen some questionable things about the characters that companies chose to peddle their sugary breakfast snacks to us kids The Trix Bunny I’m thinking the Trix Rabbit is on LSD he’s always hallucinating…

In a discussion I was having with some people on Twitter I explained that the only videogames that I buy are Sports games and Fighting games (Cept for the wii games of course lol … anyway I figured O’d do a top 10 list of some sort so why not a Top 10 Sports video…

Coming on the heels of why The GI Joe animated movie totally disrespected my childhood I realized the other important 80s property in my life/childhood The Transformers was ALSO ruined and done in by the animated movie in the 80s … this movie was SO bad that The GI Joe Movie had to be released…

While I was doing my Top 10 Pop Culture Ninja Post I thought I’d do a top swords post … I’m not including Excalibur and the like, just really the Cartoon and Video Game pop culture ones … criteria is power and relevance, it’s a delicate balance because some of the lower rank swords may…

I thought about all the comics, video games, and Cartoons I watched growing up and decided to compite a list of the top 10 Ninjas (Actually I have 25 but I’m posting 10) … Im not counting real life/human actors only fictional pop culture icons … this list took a few factors under consideration: Popularity…

Cartoons were everything growing up, I was like Martin Tupper watching those joints (Shoutouts to Dream On) Originally planned for a podcast (eclectik discussion podcast mind you!) I figured I’d do a post instead spotlighting 5 cartoons that I loved watching when I was a lower case e that a lot of people may have…

Saturday post for my few small sect of GI Joe fans … Can you name them all? And Now, the Questions … 1. Who is the female G.I.Joe member that Destro is a far off cousin to? 2. What is the device that Cobra used as their first weapon against G.I.Joe? 3. Who is the…

I love G.I. Joe, my favorite Toy, Cartoon, everything … but something tragic happened some 25 years ago How I remember it … Picture it Ohio 1987 #ephilaPatrillo The Best thing about the G.I. Joe series was that, it just brought you right into the action … no origin story, no introduction, it was M.A.S.S.…
